    It was kinda odd finding that one, because I had to remember that it was called a Flash Clapper and other images popped up for it, just have to make sure to search Southern Cross Flash Clapper otherwise results end up somewhere totally different

    I guess I should’ve looked at the rear view and at the seat, it does have a slight angle to it

    I think you’re right about the exaggerated look. Had to try and find some pics from the actual show I think the bottom one shows it more boxy looking rather than angled while the line art isn’t nearly as angled as the painted version, it does look like they probably were just going for an odd perspective although the overhead does kind look angled very slightly and the pads appear slightly smaller at the closer they get to the top possibly suggesting a bit of a taper

    Was watching a guy on YouTube a week or two ago that would work on many toy lines and he has some interesting stories. He was talking about one of the classic style masters of the universe redos, and he said that they had to use the actual figure in some cases to redo molds that were either lost of destroyed. The figures mentioned ended up slightly smaller than the original since it was essentially a copy of a copy kind of thing. It was on the Spector Creative channel on YouTube, you may want to check out some of his videos, they deal more with toys than models, but as far as the molding process and problems it’s a very similar thing. Some of his videos are very informative about things but aren’t super long.

    With all that multiverse stuff, he probably just got yanked over from a dimension where he was used for weapon X instead of Logan. I guess that Logan would just be able to heal really well after his very breakable bones keep getting snapped in fist fights and he regrets stepping into bars because he can smell everything even though he really needs a drink

    Some pics I found on a quick search The seat may have to angle up just a little and I never realized how triangular the seat actually is supposed to be. And the front while looking totally awesome is probably too big like you said. Looks like the top of the console area is pretty close to level with the top of the seat maybe just slightly lower than the top of the seat, it’s a bit tough to tell from that over the top view picture

    there’s a Beavis and Butthead joke waiting to happen for this guy.

    Bandai still reuses some Imai molds whenever they do a classic rerelease run. And some of the other aircraft kit companies are still reusing the old 60’s kits. I know they do degrade over time and sometimes they just run into accidents and get destroyed. I think it was the Monster kit that had a bad issue that Bandai needed to touch up before they could reuse them or possibly just had to totally redo them, can’t exactly remember

    Did another rewatch of the trailer and it looks yellow to me. Honestly it doesn’t even look off world. Kinda like some of the out of the way spots on the way to palm desert or something. I’m sure most of the movie is off world, but it’s kinda hard to tell other than the aliens and some of the tech

    I liked the Airwolf one she did a while back

    I’m just confused on the dog, I thought it would have tougher skin. I’m not a dog person either, but I can understand someone trying everything they can to save their pet, although it kinda came off as though she barely cared for the dog since she would just ditch it to go and get wasted again. I don’t want to sound like I hate dogs, just that they’re not my choice for a pet. I kinda like a pet that can take care of itself as far as bathroom stuff and don’t really want a pet that somehow smells worse when it gets wet. But if I’m ever around one, I definitely give lots of pets and belly rubs

    TrapJaw looked pretty cool. Kinda less dopey, more capable here

    I bet they saved a lot of money on set design with this one.
  14. Big s
    Yeah, not really excited for this at all.

    Seems like an unfair fight til they run out of fuel and ammo

    I got confused by Spike gundam. I guess they couldn’t say Tequila or at least cactus

    Maybe try the reboot version. Not the recent Netflix one, but the one that was on cartoon network a few years back. I believe it’s on Amazon. Not as divisive as the new one and a bit less cheese than the original, but still fun and looks pretty cool

    You’re more likely to get Plamax to produce that in 1/72. Bandai is more focused on the hg 1/100 kits and probably won’t do larger ones while they’re still doing the occasional dx or hmr toys. I don’t think Bandai will do a full transformation kit again for a bit, but the did do the 19 in hg. But who knows, maybe once the new series comes out and Macross hype picks up, they might get a weird adventurous streak going. I don’t mind being wrong about things if it ends up benefiting the community and personally I never thought we’d see hg Macross plus kits from Bandai or Zentraedi kits from Hasegawa. The future may hold some surprises

    Gotta agree that this was unexpected for sure. And if it is an early April fools joke, it’s a good one

    Now’s the time to try some Gundam. Try out one of the newer kits if you’re feeling lazy

    Before actually seeing the series, I kinda thought it was for kids. All the designs have sorta a cutesy kinda look with that bulbous head. It wasn’t until around the 90’s when I saw a couple episodes on a bootleg vhs that I realized it was definitely more adult. Now I look at the designs in a different way, kinda more practical than gundam or even Macross with compact size more like a walking tank with a large head totally designed to fit the pilot’s head. The only nitpick I ever had was that scopedogs can’t really look up the way they’re designed. But I forgive it, just like I forgive real dogs

    Personally I usually use gundam white from Mr color. It’s really a very pale grey. Kind like if you added a few drops of grey to a white mix. Basically not so white that it’s blinding and not so dark either
  23. Big s
    I’m guessing he used a faded lavender mix. It does look cool though

    Nice, can’t wait to see this one done. Right now we need a little hope and those little guys are the symbol of hope. Either that or Angine de Poitrine is the symbol of hope, not really sure, but it’s kinda a special year I guess

    Was working on mine and really like this kit. I never realized he had creepy toes until this kit. I don’t think I ever saw that in the show or any other kits or toys that I have.
